Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

As Ye Jinghu left, Xun Yuanqing first closed the gate, then lit a blue oil lamp to the side. After a long while, he came to the Eight Immortals table, placed a new incense burner, and bowed three times.

Subsequently, the light from the oil lamp and the sandalwood incense from the burner converged. In the next moment, a middle-aged man's figure appeared, tinged with red. Strangely, his ears were not human ears, but fox ears.

"My lord, everything has been arranged. But is it really necessary?" Xun Yuanqing respectfully began, then asked, puzzled.

"The Ye family either possesses a secret treasure or a great inheritance. If they come, they will be useful to our demon clan. If they don't, it's highly likely they won't share any spiritual treasures," the figure said knowingly, seemingly not holding too much hope.

Xun Yuanqing then suddenly understood.

"You must also be careful in your actions. Recently, those Transformation God old monsters have been searching for spatial nodes, and they might take a closer look at the Heavenly Demon Continent. Our demon clan's strength is still too weak. It's a pity that the Fox Saint of the Qingqiu Fox Clan and the Phoenix Saint of the Nirvana Phoenix Clan are both too foolish, and they can't see the Grand Saint Thousand Faces' plan."

"Understood, please rest assured, my lord," Xun Yuanqing nodded.

"Remember to do it discreetly." As the last words fell, the sandalwood smoke dispersed, and naturally, the figure disappeared without a trace.

The blue ancient lamp beside him automatically extinguished.

In the palace, only the sandalwood smoke slowly rose, enveloping the hall, making it even more secluded and silent.

Xun Yuanqing narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then took out a token, cast a few spiritual seals, and sent out a voice transmission. Before long, a cultivator walked into the palace.

"Senior Brother Xun…"

"You know Xiao Yuan from the Xiao family, right?"

"Senior Brother Xun, of course I know him. I've even traded spirit beast meat with him before."

"Well, find a time to take him climbing around the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range…"

…

Inside the restaurant, Ye Jinghu returned to his room.

Zi Lan picked up a cup of spiritual tea and handed it to him, also looking at Ye Jinghu. On the surface, she was drinking tea, but secretly, she transmitted her voice.

"Husband, not long ago, several divine senses were constantly scanning around."

"Yes, let's go. The matters are almost settled. We can discuss the shop later," Ye Jinghu nodded.

He knew that his high profile at the trade fair must have caught the attention of many Golden Core cultivators.

Perhaps even Nascent Soul cultivators would be interested in him because he possessed the Longevity Fruit.

After all, a hundred years of lifespan, various high-level spiritual pills, and a considerable amount of high-grade spirit stones would tempt even Nascent Soul cultivators. The chaos of the Heavenly Demon Continent also made it the continent with the most Nascent Soul rogue cultivators and Nascent Soul forces.

Even Xiao Yuan, who kept reminding him, harbored ulterior motives. How could Ye Jinghu trust others?

Now that he had obtained news of the Crimson Fox, he only needed to send the fox blood back to complete his mission.

The two directly checked out of the restaurant and headed straight for the teleportation array.

Of course, along the way, he ran into Xiao Yuan.

The latter approached with an extremely coincidental look, asking:

"Brother Lei, why are you leaving in such a hurry? You came to the Heavenly Demon Continent, but you didn't even take a look at the Heavenly Demon Mountain Range? It's the best place for small forces like us to earn spirit stones."

"I'll come back in a few days. I have some private matters to take care of," Ye Jinghu said.

Seeing that Xiao Yuan still wanted to say something, Ye Jinghu immediately strode away, not giving Xiao Yuan any face.

Now that he knew the other party's true colors, why would Ye Jinghu care about his face?

Moreover, the Xiao family was not a top-tier Nascent Soul family. For the current Ye family, they were not worth considering.

As Ye Jinghu strode away, Xiao Yuan's face immediately turned gloomy. If Ye Jinghu were here, he would have seen that Xiao Yuan's eyes could kill.

Even the junior clansmen beside him couldn't help but keep silent, knowing that Xiao Yuan was truly angry at this moment.

Just as Xiao Yuan was secretly resentful, a Xiao family cultivator walked in.

"Uncle Yuan, Zhao Wuji from the Zhao family said he has contacted a Golden Core cultivator who wants to find treasure."

"Good, Brother Zhao is indeed my brother!" Xiao Yuan swept away all the gloom and waved his hand repeatedly, leading his men away.

…

Shifting Sands, Heavenly Phoenix Oasis.

The lush green spiritual rice was now full of plump spiritual ears, each one looking particularly pleasing.

The clansmen of the Spirit Plant Hall also patrolled two or three times a day. After all, the Ye family now had more and more clansmen.

The family was no longer as loose as before. For example, the clansmen of the Pill Hall had to be assessed on their pill refinement rate, the clansmen of the Artifact Hall had to consider their artifact refinement rate, and naturally, the Spirit Plant Hall also had output assessments.

If they failed to meet the assessment standards, they would be lightly punished by reducing their position's stipend, and heavily punished by reducing even their basic salary.

Ye Yunhui was a clansman of the Spirit Plant Hall.

The spiritual field he was responsible for was none other than the one next to Earth Shadow Peak. He planted not only earth-attributed spiritual rice but also earth-attributed Earth Cloud Ginseng.

However, in the past few days, he had noticed that his spiritual rice was growing slower, and the spiritual ginseng he planted was also listless, naturally making him look worried.

There were countless people in the current Ye family who were working harder than him, and countless who had better talent than him. If he didn't cultivate the spiritual field well, he could only find an ordinary oasis of the Ye family, give up the path of immortality, and prepare to nurture the next generation of clansmen.

"Elder Qingsheng, can you also help me take a look?" Behind Ye Yunhui at this moment was an old man, also a clan elder of the Spirit Plant Hall.

He glanced at Ye Yunhui's procedures and looked at the spiritual plants. Similarly, he couldn't see anything wrong in a short time.

However, very quickly, he suddenly felt that the surrounding earth-attributed spiritual energy was a little strange.

Normally, the earth-attributed spiritual energy should be constantly circling within the spiritual field under the coverage of the spirit gathering array, just like a vortex.

But at this moment, the vortex seemed to have a hole in it.

Although the hole was small, he was also proficient in formations, so he could naturally see where it was.

His eyes immediately looked towards the sky, towards the distant Heavenly Shadow Peak.

Although he couldn't be sure, he was clear that the Ye family currently had the Earth Dragon Demon Emperor in seclusion.

As he sensed the spiritual energy, he also found that there was indeed a lot more yellow spiritual glow on the distant Heavenly Shadow Peak.

He took out a token and inquired with the acting family head and other clan elders. Before long, he received the news.

"Yunhui, this matter has nothing to do with you. A great joyous event for my Ye family is about to arrive!" Ye Qingsheng said happily.

"A joyous event?" Ye Yunhui was somewhat puzzled.

"I will tell the family about your assessment this time. Of course, all the earth-attributed spiritual rice and earth-attributed spiritual ginseng of the family should be affected."

"So you don't need to worry. Of course, you still need to make a summary of the spiritual field matters. My Ye family's Spirit Plant Hall is to supply hundreds of thousands or even millions of clansmen and an even greater number of spirit beasts. Striving for perfection is our bottom line!"
